In instances where more eligible children apply for a place at WSK than there are places available, the kindergarten must prioritise children based on the DET criteria below and work with
other local kindergarten services and the regional department office to ensure all eligible children have access to a kindergarten place.
Priority of access children:
Are at risk of abuse or neglect, including out of home care
Are Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander
Are, or have parents or carers who are, asylum seekers or refugees
Are eligible for the Kindergarten Fee Subsidy (hold a valid concession card or are a triplet or quadruplet)
Have additional developmental needs.
Children that fit one or more of those criteria will be allocated to a place in kindergarten as a high priority. This form will collect all the information required to determine if a child is eligible for Priority of Access.
If you believe you or your child are in exceptional circumstances which require prioritisation and are not covered by any of the above criteria, please contact Wilson Street Kindergarten to discuss.
